Lyrics

[Verse]
🎵 Oh oh oh oh, eh eh!
Re ya kwa godimo!
Sweefin lelapa, le itlhaganeletse?
Re ya kwa godimo, godimo, godimo!

[Verse 1]
Ke ne ke tsamaya mo molelong, ke ne ke akantse bosigo bo se kitla bo fela,
Mme lesedi la gago la phatsima, lefifi la me la nna tsala.
Pelo nngwe le nngwe ke modumo, kgato nngwe le nngwe ke molodi,
Jaanong le Sweefin re a tlhatloga, re kwala pina ya rona.

[Pre-Chorus]
Ga go na dikgole di ka re tshwarang,
Re ya kwa loaping, ga re boele morago.
Re tsoga mo meloreng,
Ke nako ya rona, ke sebaka sa rona.

[Chorus (Hook)]
Sweefin godimo, godimo, ga re lebelele kwa tlase,
Ditoro di a tuka, di a tlhatloga mo fatshe.
Dipelo di kopane, re ka phatsima loapi,
Sweefin godimo, godimo — wena le nna.

[Chant / Call & Response]
🎵 (Moetapele) Sweefin godimo!
(Bontsi) Godimo!
(Moetapele) Ditoro di a tuka!
(Bontsi) Tuka!
(Moetapele) Tsholetsa diatla!
(Bontsi) Godimo!
Mmogo re tlhatloga, mmogo re fofa!

[Verse 2]
Letlapa lengwe le lengwe e nnile pego, selelo sengwe le sengwe ke kgato,
Jaanong botlhoko bo agile kgalalelo, re sa tshwaraganyege, re godile.
Go tswa motsaneng go ya toropong, lentswe lengwe le lengwe le simolola go opela,
Sweefin maatla mo moweng wa rona, kagiso ke pina e re e tlisang.

[Pre-Chorus]
Ga go na dikgole di ka re tshwarang,
Re ya kwa loaping, ga re boele morago.
Re tsoga mo meloreng,
Ke nako ya rona, ke sebaka sa rona.

[Chorus (Hook)]
Sweefin godimo, godimo, ga re lebelele kwa tlase,
Ditoro di a tuka, di a tlhatloga mo fatshe.
Dipelo di kopane, re ka phatsima loapi,
Sweefin godimo, godimo — wena le nna.

[Bridge / Breakdown]
Tsholetsa diatla, a lefatshe le bone,
Sweefin e tlisa kutlwano.
Moya mongwe le mongwe o tshwanetse go phatsima,
Ke wa gago ka bosakhutleng, ke wa me ka bosakhutleng.
🎵 (Chant) Oh oh oh, Sweefin oh!
Eh eh eh, godimo re ya!
Oh oh oh, Sweefin oh!
Tuka, tuka, e tuka mo moweng wa rona!

[Chorus (Hook)
×2 with variations]
Sweefin godimo, godimo, ga re lebelele kwa tlase,
Ditoro di a tuka, di a tlhatloga mo fatshe.
Dipelo di kopane, re ka phatsima loapi,
Sweefin godimo, godimo — wena le nna.🎵 Re ya kwa godimo (godimo!)
Re ya go nna matla (matla!)
Re ya go phatsima (phatsima!)
Sweefin ka bosakhutleng (bosakhutleng!)
🎵 Sweefin godimo, godimo — (oh oh oh!)
Sweefin godimo, godimo — (eh eh eh!)
Ditoro di a tuka, tuka — (oh oh oh!)
Sweefin godimo, godimo — wena le nna!🎵 Sweefin… godimo, godimo, godimo…
Re ya kwa godimo, godimo, godimo…
Re a tlhatloga ka bosakhutleng, re phatsima ka bosakhutleng…
